The magician shows a deck of playing cards, asks a spectator to chose one, and then invites him to put the chosen card back into the deck and shuffle it. At this point, the magician takes off his tie and puts it in a wicker basket together with the deck. The audience will be amazed and amused when they see the magician’s tie rise from the basket as if it was a snake with the selected card in its mouth.
 
• The basket has a diameter of about 28 cm.
• The deck is not provided as it is just a completely normal deck.
